I heard someone say this in a video recipe, followed by way more cheese than you should eat at once. It occurred to me that the phrase means ample, not nutritious.

Did the person happen to have a southern accent?
As someone from the south, that’s what “healthy” means when used to describe an amount of something. It means “a lot”.
Also, if you say someone looks healthy you’re basically calling them fat, depending on tone of voice and inflection.
South? Like Australia?
But yeah “a healthy amount” in UK English too means"a large amount of"
Similar to “generous” or “liberal”
Yeah what I was going to say, too. “Healthy” in the context of an amount usually means “be quite generous”.
